Summer field trip to the Caernarvon Freshwater DiversionJuly 20, 2016 | Posted by Emily McCalla in Latest News
By Samantha Carter, Senior Outreach Coordinator, Restore the Mississippi River Delta Coalition
Our partners at the Lake Pontchartrain Basin Foundation and the National Wildlife Federation recently took out a group of folks to see the Caernarvon freshwater diversion and the new land it is building in Big Mar, 20 miles south of New Orleans. Participants were taken by airboat to the diversion structure itself, down the conveyance channel, and through the emerging delta in Big Mar. Caernarvon wasn't designed to capture sand and other land-building materials out of the Mississippi River but rather to input freshwater into the basin in order to control salinities. Despite this, and its seldom operation and minimal flows, Caernarvon is building new land. That new land provides habitat for wildlife such as roseate spoonbills, alligators, catfish, osprey and turtles in addition to providing protection for communities from storm surge.
The tour included participants from Waggonner and Ball Architects, Trust for Public Land, the Link Restaurant Group, the Louisiana Public Health Institute, the New Orleans Redevelopment Authority and the Tulane Institute on Water Resources Law and Policy. See below for some pictures from this tour.
If you would like to learn more about the Caernarvon freshwater diversion or set up a tour of your own, please contact LPBF's Assistant Director of Coastal Sustainability, Theryn Henkel at firstname.lastname@example.com.
As Senior Outreach Coordinator, Samantha Carter works to develop and implement outreach and engagement strategies to advance the priorities of the Mississippi River Delta Restoration Program for the National Wildlife Federation. Focusing on the Greater New Orleans area, she educates and engages community leaders and other key stakeholders, including elected officials and neighborhood associations, to address the alarming loss of coastal wetlands in Louisiana. Additionally, Samantha helps coordinate the MRGO Must Go Coalition – a group of 17 environmental, community, and social justice organizations working to restore the degraded wetland ecosystem that protects the Greater New Orleans area from storm surge.No Comments
Celebrating America and Protecting our Feathered FriendsJuly 18, 2016 | Posted by Emily McCalla in Latest News
By Emily McCalla, Communications Coordinator, Restore the Mississippi River Delta Coalition
Prior to the start of a busy Fourth of July weekend, Audubon Louisiana staff and volunteers ventured to Holly Beach to protect nesting birds. These birds, including Wilson's Plovers, Least Terns and Black Skimmers, are all Audubon priority bird species and are in danger of losing their crucial habitat. Additionally, many of these birds depend on beach habitat for nesting, making their nests vulnerable to vehicular and human traffic. These nests are often camouflaged, making it hard for people to know birds are nesting on the same beaches they're enjoying for recreation.
Audubon Louisiana staff discovered nesting sites along the beaches where many would gather to celebrate Independence Day. Sadly, a few nests were found to have been run over by vehicles. In order to protect these birds from further beachgoer incidents, Audubon Louisiana reached out to supporters to gather volunteers to install protective fencing and signs around these critical nesting areas.
Upon arriving at the beach, Katie Barnes, Audubon Louisiana Coastal Bird Technician, spotted a young Wilson's Plover running across the beach. She placed a small band around the bird's leg in order to track its movement, weighed and recorded the bird, and a volunteer safely released it back onto the beach along with another fledgling collected by Audubon Louisiana Director of Bird Conservation, Erik Johnson.
In all, eight volunteers showed up to help protect these priority birds and their nests. Some people were directed to install fence posts, some strung reflective cord, and some secured "Sensitive Nesting Area" signs to each post. After a few hours, enough fencing was installed to protect all of the cataloged nests along the beach during the Independence Day festivities. Volunteers were able to learn about priority birds, see many of them along the beach and enjoy a beautiful start to the Fourth of July weekend!

"Unlike some other flood-prone, below-sea-level cities, New Orleans keeps its water hidden.

This is a good read on this fabulous sports car... out in 2008. http://www.autobloggreen.com/2007/06/12/lightning-car-co-to-use-altairnano-batteries-in-new-sports-car/
then end of lightening?
The 'Nemesis' has broken the UK electric car land-speed record – reaching 151 mph. The existing record of 137mph was set by Don Wales, grandson of legendary speed-merchant Sir Malcolm Campbell.
The Nemesis is the result of nearly two years' hard work by an 'A-team' of ex-motorsport engineers, with the brief from Ecotricity founder and MD Dale Vince to "blow the socks off Jeremy Clarkson and smash the stereotype of electric cars".
The result is awesome: faster than a V12 Ferrari, 0-100mph in 8.5 seconds and a top speed of 170mph. All powered entirely from the wind. Or to be more precise by green electricity produced by Ecotricity's windmills and delivered by the grid.
There is a update link in the story that is worth reading.After we posted the initial information on the Lightning GT yesterday, we contacted Arthur Wolstenholme, the Technical Director at the Lightning Car Company, to get more information on the new car. At this time they only have gas engine powered prototypes running that are being used for chassis development. The first battery-powered version should be running later this year.The Lightning GT engineers won't have to worry about working out the blending of the regenerative braking and friction braking because there is no friction braking. The Lightning will rely entirely on regen from the wheel motors. For those of you high-performance electric car enthusiasts that were hoping to see this as an alternative to the Tesla Roadster, don't hold your breath to see this one come across the pond any time soon. The Tesla will look cheap by comparison with an initial price estimate of �150,000 (roughly $300,000) the Lightning will definitely be only for the thick-walleted greenie. Lightning is clearly looking to recoup the entire cost of the Altairnano batteries and composite structure up front rather than selling clean air credits like Phoenix. No annual volume estimates are available until they see how many orders and how many batteries they can get. Initially the cars will be available in the UK only with a left hand drive version for the continent coming after that. If the company survives that they will consider the US market and what it would take to certify the car here.Reader Comments(Page 1)1. Ouch; that's even higher than I expected!With Tesla's arrival in Europe virtually inevitable, the Lightning won't be around long. It'll be a hot collectors car someday, though ;)More info at link below.http://www.autobloggreen.com/2007/06/13/more-details-on-the-lightning-gt-not-here-and-not-cheap/
Can't help noticing the 250 miles on a charge claim, are they planning to use a battery that hasn't been announced yet?
I am not sure if anyone would know on this board, but if I were to guess, I'd say the Lightening should be a heck of a lot lighter than the SUV or the SUT.I am not sure what the body composition of the car is but that should give us an idea of the weight of the car. So maybe adding more battery packs combined with the reduce chassis weight can give us a better range.Also Dr. Gotcher made a couple of statement about the SUT and how it's possible to make it more efficient. So maybe they learned something from Phoenix and raised the efficiency, combined it with more batteries and lowered the weight of the car to get > 200 miles.Part of me hopes the new battery design by Evan is what is going to be rolled out in the Lightening :-)
This is a photo of the wheel in Lightening.http://www.autobloggreen.com/gallery/lightning-gt/273108/Is this what Regen brakes look like on the outside? or is this something else?

Con, I thought I'd make some stuff to add to my steampunk costume.
The watch is a pattern I downloaded from Thingiverse. The hands didn't come out, but it still looks cool. The hardest part was scraping out the "raft" - the temporary support part - out of everything. I found I'm not good at scraping the inside of a circle with a utility knife without getting my fingers cut, but luckily I didn't lose any.
The cameo was based on a project I saw on Instructables, but unfortunately it wasn't complete, because they were waiting on a Kickstarter or something which never happened. So, I just found a clip art of a Victorian-looking cameo and imported it into CorelDraw, which is what we use with our laser engraver (you can create the designs in other programs and import it as a JPG or PDF into Corel, but I needed the practice).
Corel is not the most intuitive drawing program in the world, so it would've been ideal to take a class first, but I fiddled with it based on my knowledge of other drawing programs, from Illustrator to good old ClarisWorks. The tricky part is making red outlines to indicate everything you want to cut though, but only those parts (black lines mean engraving).
My first attempt was too small, and just left a pile of dust. Finally, though, I got a size and pattern that would work. It's really neat to see the laser cut through the felt super-fast without somehow burning it up.
So, if you like to make stuff and are bad like me at cutting a straight line, give the laser engraver a try. 3-D prints tend to look to unfinished to me, maybe the watch needs a patina or something to make it look old.

So, I just got my tax refund, which means it's time for a big-ticket-item purchase. Usually, it's either technology or home improvement. Last year was both, as I bought a new bigger TV, wire shelving and CD storage. This year, I'm finally replacing Big Iron, my 2007 MacPro tower, with a new iMac. Big Iron was starting not to play nice with current software, not to mention he blows his fan at me sometimes for no good goddamn reason.
Of course, one purchase often leads to others, so I might also try to update my "home office" set-up, maybe a new little table for peripherals, since I won't have a hard drive tower to keep them on, possibly the kind that the Google calls "C". I have this fantasy of getting selected for Lifehacker's Workspace Show & Tell even though I don't have 6 monitors and a desk made out of a plank from Blackbeard's pirate ship.
In honor of tax refund time, here are some of my best (beyond the obvious ones) and worst technology purchases.
Computer desk: Maybe this isn't technically technology, but I just love my desk so much. This baby is all metal and almost impossible to damage, even when they were fixing my HVAC and I had to keep moving it around. It has cool extension shelves for storing peripherals that likewise are nearly impossible to break. Its smooth lines and brushed metal finish fit with my modernist style, and the triangular shape squeezes into a corner just right. While it was clearly made with CRT monitors in mind, that just means you can't buy your own, so there. You can buy a boring ol' rectangular one if you want, though.
Toaster oven: Maybe it's weird of me, but I just like baking things in my little toaster oven so much more than my regular oven. I even bake potatoes in there and set the timer twice. Before, I just heated up bread and pizza rolls, but now I make stuff every week (from a mix, but still...).
Universal remote: It's hard for my sweetie to pry my Logitech Harmony out of my hands, I love it so. It just fits right in my hand. And when you have the amount of devices I have, you need a serious remote. I use my iPad to search for things, but when actually watching, I don't want to have to look at my device. The software is slightly crash-y, but it's pretty easy to add a new device, as it walks you through the steps.
Antenna: I just can't get a good signal with anything for either radio or TV. I might try one of those flat ones you hang on the wall, but it's hard to face more disappointment. I've gotten used to watching everything on demand anyway - the last time I watched live TV was when I was sick and the Internet went out.
Nook Glowlight Plus: When my old Nook Simple Touch finally died, I thought I'd try the fancy new "deluxe" model, but its new version of Android broke compatibility with Adobe Digital Editions, which is how I get my library books - my main use of it. It's fixed now, but the bitterness lingers. Anyway, I don't like how heavy and hard it is - you could kill somebody with it. So, I went back to the soft light rubberiness of the slightly earlier version. I just hope it lasts until they come out with indestructible color e-ink tablets, or a brain chip or something.
Roomba: Probably one of my worst ever purchases. Maybe I just have too much stuff in too little space, but it just sat under the couch and cowered in fear. Sorry we don't all live in lofts with tons of empty floor, Roomba.
I got a Twitter reply from Sun-Times technology columnist Andy Ihnatko. Wee!

Continuum is the best show you've never heard of with all of its episodes available on Netflix, so go watch it now.
Do you want a show that deals with time travel and stopping a bad future like the Terminator franchise, but in a way that actually makes sense? Do you like the idea of Minority Report dealing with technology's possible misuse by government, but wish the show was actually well-done? Do you want a cutting-edge exploration of technology as both problem and solution like Mr. Robot, but from four years ago and starring Canadians? Well, here you go!
Not to mention, the cast is refreshingly diverse and non-stereotypical. No character is totally good or bad -- everyone has their reasons. In fact our heroine has been happily serving an evil corporate empire, while the "terrorists" she fights (who are pretty damn ruthless) are trying to prevent a dystopian hellscape future. And, thank Cthulhu, she is too busy with her goals to spend much time on juvenile romantic angst (looking at you, Flash and Arrow!).
The only issue I have with the show is that the actors are fine, but a little bland. It's not like watching Orphan Black and thinking, "OMG GIVE TATIANA MASLANY ALL THE AWARDS!" So, it may take a few episodes to grow on you, but give it a chance.

I've been having fun with the Artstudio app for iPad and the Sensu stylus lately. It was coming up on October, and Guillermo del Toro was talking about his favorite horror stories on Twitter (Dude must have been a librarian in a previous life, because his Readers' Advisory game is ON POINT. Go follow him). That inspired me to read 31 of my old favorite Victorian & Edwardian horror stories and draw illustrations for each of them for Halloween. Of course, it took me longer than that, but they are finally finished. I was inspired, in my lazy and casual way, by great illustrators like Aubrey Beardsley, John R. Neill, and Alastair.
Here is the list of stories:
- "Caterpillars" -E.F. Benson
- "Casting the Runes" -M..R. James
- "The Horla" - Guy de Maupassant
- "How Love Came to Professor Guildea" -Robert Hichens
- "Afterward" -Edith Wharton
- "The Great God Pan" - Arthur Machen
- "Yuki-Onna" - Lafcadio Hearn
- "Green Tea" - J. Sheridan LeFanu
- "The Monkey's Paw" - W. W. Jacobs
- "Luella Miller" - Mary Wilkins Freeman
- "Rappacini's Daughter" - Nathaniel Hawthorne
- "The Picture in the House" -H.P. Lovecraft
- "The Yellow Wallpaper" -Charlotte Perkins Gilman
- "The Open Window" -Saki
- "The Phantom Rickshaw" - Rudyard Kipling
- "Ancient Sorceries" -Algernon Blackwood
- "An Occurrence at Owl Creek Bridge" - Ambrose Bierce
- "The Yellow Sign" -Robert W. Chambers
- "The Voice in the Night" - William Hope Hodgson
- "The Beckoning Fair One" - Oliver Onions
- "The Tell-Tale Heart" -Edgar Allan Poe
- "Adam and Eve and Pinch Me" - A. E. Coppard
- "The Way It Came" - Henry James
- "The Captain of the Pole-Star" - Arthur Conan Doyle
- "The Body-Snatcher" - R.L. Stevenson
- "What Was It?" -Fitz-James O'Brien
- "Dracula's Guest" - Bram Stoker
- "Good Lady Ducayne" - Mary E. Braddon
- "The Dream Woman" - Wilkie Collins
- "The Ghost Ship" - Richard Middleton
- "Man-Size in Marble" - E. Nesbit
I downloaded all of them from reliable public domain e-book sites like Project Gutenberg, Internet Archive, and University of Adelaide E-books to read on my Nook. (remember, never pay for an e-book published before 1923, folks). You can download them to read here.

It's on streaming, finally!
If you had told me 5 years ago that my favorite network show (and right up there with more highly-praised cable shows) would be a show on CBS called Person of Interest, there would have been scoffing involved. I associate CBS with bland-but-comforting investigation shows that exploit some technology (usually inaccurately) to give the story a little twist, then tie up a mystery all nice-&-tidy, with occasional breaks for truly cringeworthy depictions of the investigators' personal lives. Except for a few bad apples, all authority figure have our best interests at heart.
Well, this is not that. Getting murdered or almost-murdered by corrupt authority figures is one of the top concerns for characters in this universe. When you're one of the few people who know about an all-seeing AI that watches us for the government, it's kind of an issue (and yes, social media was created to get us to give up our personal information so the authorities can spy on us).
All the main actors are great in this. Jim Caviezel is slightly "off" in an interesting way, like Lee Pace or early Nicholas Cage, and it really works for him here. Person of Interest has some similarities to Burn Notice, in that an ex-spy helps "regular" people using as much con artistry as martial arts and high tech, but it's a bit darker. For all the hints of Michael's dark past, I just couldn't buy that he was only a short distance from being a cold-blooded killing machine. I can totally see Caviezel killing people, though. I never got into Lost. so this was my first exposure to Michael Emerson, and he's amazing. It's really hard to play a super-genius, but he pulls it off. And I've been impressed with Taraji P. Henson's emotional range since I saw her play a lesbian hitwoman in Smokin' Aces. Do we even need to talk about Amy Acker, AKA Fred from Angel, who should be in all the things?
Speaking of ladies, even though most of the promotional stuff features the two dudes in front, there are a lot of great big and small roles for women, who have the same character options as men without making it a BIG DEAL. Women can be cynical political fixers, assassins with personality disorders, super-hackers, ruthless heads of intelligence operations, crack interrogators, amoral con artists, kindly children's book illustrators, and older partners who show the newbie the ropes.
All this, and my favorite AI character in non-anime visual media. So, give it a try, already!

The same week I got to DJ on Plug.dj with some people in the 80s Alt /New Wave group, playing my favorite thing, cover versions. I had a blast, even though it did not play well with my Firefox extensions.
Plug.dj is the successor to the late lamented Turntable.fm. It's really easy to start playing music. You are limited to songs with YouTube videos, but that is most of them (make sure not to play the live version if that's not what you want.) Navigation takes a little getting used to. I'm a sucker for the gamification aspect where you get a cooler avatar the more you play.
I need some people to come join me on the wheels of steel, so unleash your inner DJ and come with me...

What is loaded into Delphi 2010 from a dsk file that could prevent Delphi 2010 from crashing when a project is loaded?
Let me explain. It is somewhat complicated.
When I installed Delphi 2010 I put it on a large USB Western Digital hard drive (R:) with only Delphi 2010, Delphi project folders and Delphi component folders on it.
I copied all of my projects and components to the USB drive in R:\Components and R:\Projects folders. I then removed all the *.dcu files and history folders and *.dsk files so that Delphi 2010 would load the correct files that I open from Drive R.
Then I installed nearly all of my components into Delphi 2010 from folders on Drive R and tested them all with out a problem. So far over the last 7 days I have not had a problem with any of the components or projects I installed from R drive. I had thought everything was just fine until I tried loading my VclZip projects into Delphi 2010 from Drive R.
After opening a project with vclzip component... all is fine for about 15-20 seconds... then without even touching the mouse or the keyboard Delphi totally crashes and i am left at the Vista desktop with a dialog what says an exception ocurred in bds.exe in the runtime debugger.
Trouble Shooting
If I copy the *.dsk file in the project folder from Drive D ( Delphi 2009 project folder) to the project folder on Drive R, Delphi 2010 opens the project from Drive R and it does not crash, but the wrong files from my Delphi 2009 projects folder on Drive D are loaded into the Tabs (I suspect as specified from the *.dsk file). If I close the tabs in the Delphi 2010 IDE with the incorrect files and reopen the files in the ide, by double clicking them in the project group Delphi does not crash and i can compile and run the project from Drive R in Delphi 2010 with no problems.
I have been working with Delphi since Delphi 1 and I have never seen this happen before among 10's of thousands of delphi projects over the years, but I must say I naver have installed a version of delphi on a usb drive before. The other thing that is strange is why do just projects with VclZip do this? No other projects of well over a 100-200 projects and demos compiled so far in Delphi 2010 act this way.
Obvously something is wrong but I have no idea what except maybe an environment path or some incompatable code in a component. Is there an environment path that could cause Delphi to crash? An official VCLZip component is not available yet but I suspect it will be done in several days. If the component is not causing the problem does anyone have any ideas or suggestions?
Hopefully I have explained this well enough for everyone to understand.

How would you do this using xpath functions and xslt templates?
We started with Q&A. Technical documentation is next, and we need your help.
Whether you're a beginner or an experienced developer, you can contribute.
This transformation (overriding the identity rule):
when applied to the following XML document:
correctly produces the wanted result:
Remember: Using and overriding the identity rule/template is the most fundamental and powerful XSLT design pattern. It is the right choice for a variety of problems where most of the nodes are to be copied unchanged and only some specific nodes need be altered, deleted, renamed, ..., etc.
Note: @Abel in his comment recommends that some bits of this solution need to be further explained:

Recent reviews
Good 3.4 /5 from 304 reviews
Hotel is showing its age. Elevators are old and cramped. TV did not work and the bathroom sink leaked. Had to be moved to another room. Parking is expensive and you have to pay for internet. It was a nice area and because we only stayed 1 night it was tolerable. I will look for other options next time I stay in the area.
We loved this hotel and would stay again. Valet was great. Price good for the location. Clean and friendly and quiet. Wish there was a room frig and easier access for ice. No vending. Bathroom needs a vent/fan. Accommodated us quickly for room change.
This is an over-priced hotel with no parking other than valet. The room was primitive, with few amenities, although clean and comfortable. The hallways were so convoluted we could barely find our way to our room. Free continental breakfast. Friendly staff. One block from the ocean, which is why we chose it.
Very convenient location
I feel lucky to have found this hotel online. The hotel was in a great location, walkable, to Santa Monica pier, shopping and to the Promenade. The neighborhood was clean and safe. The staff was friendly and offered valet parking and always offered to bring our car when we were in the lobby but decided to walk. The room was pleasant, updated for an older hotel, the bed, we had a king size, was comfortable. They offered a continual breakfast.
Is the description of this hotel not correct? Tell us

By Samuel P. Jacobs
WASHINGTON, June 12 (Reuters) - After providing ammunition to President Barack Obama's re-election campaign by criticizing his fellow Republicans, former Florida Governor Jeb Bush clarified his comments on Tuesday and blamed Democrats for failing to compromise during Obama's term.
"The point I was making yesterday is this: The political system is hyperpartisan. Both sides are at fault," Bush wrote on his Twitter page.
Bush, brother to one Republican president and son of another, took issue with his own party on Monday, saying Ronald Reagan and George H.W. Bush might have not have been praised by Republicans today.
Reagan "would be criticized for doing things that he did," Bush told journalists at Bloomberg News in New York.
On Tuesday, Bush blamed Democrats for political gridlock.
"Past 4 years, Democrats have held leadership roles w/opportunities to each across the political aisle," Bush tweeted. "For sake of politics, they haven't."
"My dad & Reagan sacrificed political points for good public policy," he added.
Supporters of Obama and Republican presidential candidate Mitt Romney have been eager to pounce on members of the opposing political party who appear to speak against their candidate's messages. (Editing by Christopher Wilson)
